Teaching Personnel is currently recruiting a committed and resilient 1:1 ALN Support Assistant to provide 1:1 and classroom-based support within a specialist school in Cardiff, working with pupils aged 3–19.

  • Experience supporting children or young people with SEN and challenging behaviours
  • Deliver consistent 1:1 and small group support during lessons and daily activities tailored to individual pupil need
  • The ability to implement strategies to manage and de-escalate behaviour effectively
  • A commitment to encouraging the pupil’s engagement, confidence, and emotional development
  • Dedication to fostering an inclusive and supportive learning environment
